Common Amazon issues and how to resolve them - with Vicki Weinberg Bring Your Product Idea to Life

    • Entrepreneurship

I share my top tips for how to resolve and solve common issues you may encounter when selling on Amazon.
EPISODE NOTES
**Please remember to rate and review the podcast - it really helps others to find it.**
Today on the podcast I want to talk about common issues that you can come across when selling on Amazon. Unfortunately these issues are quite common, but most of them can be solved.
My aim today is to share my tips and advice so that you don’t get put off by any problems you encounter, and are empowered as to how best to tackle them yourself.
Too many people encounter problems on Amazon that are tricky to solve, and give up selling on there, which is such a shame as I genuinely believe it is a brilliant platform for many product businesses. My hope is you find this episode useful, and don’t forget, you can always contact me for help if needed.
As always, I would love for you to listen in and let me know what you think.

If you've been inspired to start a podcast in 2024 then I recommend my podcast host, Captivate.
They were my top pick when I started 4 years ago because of how easy it was for a complete novice to get started. I’ve stuck with them because it’s still simple, they keep adding great new features (like the ability to share ads like these!) and it’s been so reliable.
